0:43
instead of tomorrow because
0:44
cory had an appointment and
0:46
then he got a phone call
0:47
right before the show so
0:48
he's taking care of the
0:49
phone call and hopefully
0:51
he'll be in before lunch
0:52
gets too far into it but
0:55
what's going on man what's
0:56
going on everyone everyone
0:58
having a good day it's tuesday
1:01
Yeah, Trey and Olive,
1:02
we're going Cajun Tuesday
1:04
instead of Wednesday this week.
1:07
Jeremy,
1:07
anyone else oddly aroused by the
1:09
thumbnail?
1:12
I try to come up with famous
1:13
duos that I can get chat
1:14
GPT to change Corey and I's
1:17
picture into some famous duo.
1:19
Like last week was Shake and
1:22
Bake from Talladega Nights,
1:24
and this week was Top Gun.
1:26
But you have to kind of fool chat GPT.
1:29
If I say, make us Goose and Maverick,
1:33
it's like, due to copyright rules,
1:35
I can't make any changes, blah, blah,
1:37
blah.
1:38
but if I say put us in top gun costumes,
1:41
it'll do it.
1:44
It's crazy.
1:46
Um, so you just have to fake out, uh,
1:48
chat GPT to get what you want to do.
1:52
Um,
1:55
the one that Corey wants the most is
1:56
dumb and dumber.
1:58
Uh, I'm trying to figure that one out.
1:59
I have not been able to get around.
2:01
It's copyright thing on chat GPT.
2:03
So, uh,
2:07
Yeah, so that's where we're at with that.
2:10
We got Meredith.
2:10
We got Jody.
2:11
We got Denise.
2:13
Jay Burch is in the house.
2:16
Meredith, I do not want to be you.
2:18
Going on one week of solo
2:20
parenting for kids, four kids,
2:23
while the husband is out of
2:24
town just trying to survive
2:25
at this point.
2:26
Wow.
2:28
Huge kudos to you.
2:30
That has got to be a tough,
2:32
tough thing to do this week.
2:35
So...
2:39
first thing I want to talk
2:39
about I'm gonna throw a
2:41
dart forgot about that I'm
2:43
just picking it up and
2:43
twirling it um is this oh
2:48
my gosh another hole in the
2:50
wall oh terrible terrible
2:55
terrible terrible terrible
2:58
oh um I'm gonna have to get
3:00
some patch kits for that
3:04
lito's now with us terry shanna uh
3:08
so good to see you guys um
3:12
what I want to talk about
3:13
first is I want last night
3:16
on our show we were talking
3:18
about dave's week in review
3:20
and the fact that taylor
3:23
herself resigned from the
3:26
crossfit athlete council um
3:30
jamie wanted me to go watch
3:35
Wanted to go watch it and
3:36
wanted my opinions on this.
3:38
And so after watching it,
3:40
I do have some interesting
3:45
thoughts on this.
3:49
And what that is, is Dave talks about how
3:58
They had a meeting because
3:59
he tested positive for BPC.
4:03
All that I agree with.
4:05
If you are being suspended
4:08
from CrossFit for four years,
4:11
you shouldn't be on an athlete council.
4:14
Now,
4:15
what makes this complicated a little
4:17
bit is he's on the coaching
4:18
aspect of the council,
4:20
not the athlete piece of the council.
4:23
So, as I understand it,
4:27
But as the conversation came up,
4:29
people said they didn't
4:31
like the way he was talking
4:33
and representing the organization.
4:37
So the first part of that I
4:39
have an issue with is, one,
4:41
he was the only one talking
4:43
about the organization out
4:45
to the general public and
4:47
letting us know what they were doing,
4:49
what they were trying to accomplish,
4:52
what they were working on.
4:54
That's the only time...
4:57
That's the only time we got
4:58
any updates from the council.
5:00
I haven't heard from another
5:01
member of that council on
5:03
what they're doing,
5:04
what they're trying to
5:05
accomplish or anything like that.
5:08
However, uh, so Kenneth says,
5:12
so Ricky shouldn't be on
5:13
the athlete council.
5:16
He's not suspended anymore.
5:18
He's not on an active suspension.
5:21
Um,
5:25
where this takes a turn
5:26
where I don't understand it
5:28
is that when he,
5:30
they say he talks publicly
5:32
and Dave says at one point that he,
5:40
if it were up to him,
5:41
he gave them two pieces of advice.
5:43
If it were up to him, he would fire him.
5:47
Well,
5:48
Taylor is elected to that position and,
5:51
you don't fire an elected official,
5:54
you impeach an elected official.
5:59
So firing gives the
6:01
perception that Dave has
6:03
some kind of control over this.
6:06
The other thing that makes
6:07
this really confusing to me
6:08
is that when the CrossFit
6:12
Athlete Council was formed,
6:14
it was supposed to be
6:15
separate and apart from CrossFit HQ.
6:19
It was supposed to be an
6:19
elected board that looked
6:21
over what was happening with CrossFit.
6:24
And Gabe brought ideas, suggestions,
6:27
looked over things,
6:29
became the athlete's voice for CrossFit.
6:31
They created this to combat
6:34
what the PFA was demanding they got.
6:39
And they were doing this as
6:41
a way to have a third-party
6:45
entry into the system that
6:48
looked over what was
6:49
happening with CrossFit and
6:51
the CrossFit Games.
6:54
That means if it's separate and apart,
6:57
then Dave shouldn't have
6:58
the option to fire or not
7:01
fire or impeach or whatever
7:04
that might be.
7:11
if there is a vote done or
7:15
there are charges brought
7:16
against him which I guess
7:17
you could say the ped use
7:19
is one of those and then
7:20
they threw in the part that
7:21
he didn't represent them
7:22
well and I guess that would
7:25
go to poor job performance
7:27
they could put it up for
7:28
vote again to see if he
7:30
could be impeached out of
7:31
the position and there he is
7:39
sorry impeached out of the
7:40
position but if this actual
7:43
athlete council is supposed
7:45
to be a third party
7:46
overlooking what crossfit
7:47
is doing then dave
7:49
shouldn't have a tiebreaker
7:50
vote he shouldn't have a
7:52
vote he shouldn't be
7:53
determining who is on it it
7:55
is supposed to be separate
7:56
and apart and overlooking
7:58
what crossfit is doing we
8:00
talk about the cat I am
8:06
because last night we talked
8:07
about it briefly that I
8:08
went and watched dave's
8:09
week in review last night
8:11
when Dave was saying that he would fire,
8:13
he would be the tiebreaker vote,
8:15
I think that's overstepping
8:18
his authority in this.
8:22
The council was founded to
8:25
be a separate voice of the athletes,
8:28
the coaches, the affiliates,
8:31
to give comments and
8:33
commentary to HQ on what they were doing.
8:36
And it was supposed to be
8:37
voted on by their peers,
8:39
not assigned by CrossFit.
8:42
If CrossFit steps in and fires someone,
8:44
they're in fact saying we
8:47
are determining who is on this council.
8:51
Yeah,
8:51
it's kind of a silly thing to appoint
8:55
an entire group of people
8:56
and then turn around and go, well,
8:58
I know we appointed them,
9:00
but we're also going to
9:03
unappoint them or just
9:05
overrule whatever it is that they say.
9:06
That's kind of...
9:08
I didn't get a chance to see
9:09
what he actually said
9:09
because I was hemmed up yesterday.
9:12
So I was actually getting
9:13
caught up on the last night
9:14
show this morning before
9:16
Haley went on Savant.
9:21
Last night a lot of people
9:22
were arguing like if he is,
9:26
should he have been or
9:26
shouldn't he have been?
9:27
I'm not here to debate that.
9:29
I don't think he should have
9:30
been fired by CrossFit.
9:32
I think it comes up to a vote of the peers,
9:34
and as they are the ones who voted him in,
9:36
they're the only ones that
9:38
can then determine he's not
9:39
upholding his obligation to that council,
9:42
or he is, right?
9:46
On Dave's Week in Review, he said,
9:49
I gave two pieces of advice
9:50
that he would fire him.
9:53
It's he's not an employee.
9:55
He can't be fired.
9:56
It's an elected official.
9:59
So you have to be impeached.
10:00
That means you have to go in
10:01
front of an impeachment hearing.
10:02
You have to write.
10:04
And I don't know.
10:05
I know Shannon is asking,
10:07
what do the bylaws?
10:08
I'd have to look at those.
10:09
I don't have access to that.
10:11
But Taylor was the one that
10:12
was saying that, like,
10:14
he doesn't get paid by them.
10:16
It's fully voluntary, the entire thing.
10:18
So, like,
10:19
how are you going to fire a volunteer?
10:21
Right.
10:24
Whether the council was created,
10:28
there is debate.
10:29
Was the council created to
10:30
protect them and just be a facade?
10:33
Or was it whatever you were doing?
10:36
But if CrossFit fires
10:37
someone from the council,
10:39
it is now blowing up the
10:41
optics that it is there for
10:45
safety of the athletes.
10:46
I would say so.
10:50
And they had said when they
10:51
put out the press release
10:53
that they were not going to
10:54
appoint anybody to this council.
10:56
They were going to be
10:57
elected by their peers.
11:02
And so if Dave says he's
11:03
going to fire someone,
11:04
that oversteps his authority, I believe,
11:06
in this council.
11:10
It doesn't mean it wouldn't happen.
11:12
It doesn't mean it wouldn't happen.
11:14
I'm just saying you're
11:15
losing the optics that this
11:17
is someone that is not
11:19
under the control of CrossFit HQ or Dave.
11:21
I'd agree with that.
11:29
I think the entire reason
11:30
people wanted Taylor in
11:31
there to begin with is
11:32
because his voice is independent.
11:35
He calls it like he sees it.
11:37
Whether you think he's abrasive, brash,
11:39
rude, whatever,
11:41
he speaks from the heart
11:42
and he believes in what he says.
11:45
He's not a flip-flopper.
11:46
He's not a wishy-washy guy.
11:48
He stands up for people that
11:50
might necessarily be able
11:51
to stand up for themselves.
11:52
So Andrew Sten says, he literally says,
11:54
it's not my call.
11:56
But you're Dave Castro,
11:57
you're standing in front of the council,
11:59
and you say, I would fire him.
12:00
That is influence.
12:02
Two,
12:03
he says later in the week in review
12:07
that if it came down to a tie,
12:09
he would be the deciding vote.
12:12
I don't know how that happens.
12:14
That's not set up very well.
12:18
No.
12:18
There should be a different
12:19
tiebreaker than the guy
12:21
you're watching getting to
12:23
determine whether you're on or not.
12:27
It's like somebody being on
12:28
trial for murder and they
12:31
come back with a home jury
12:31
and then the guy who's on trial is like,
12:33
you know what?
12:34
I didn't do it.
12:36
I'm voting for me.
12:37
I'm going to go ahead and get out.
12:41
So I've missed a lot of the stuff on here.
12:45
I missed all of it.
12:52
It's the council removing him,
12:53
not the people who voted the council in.
12:55
He's also in it as a coach,
12:57
not an athlete.
12:58
Yeah, we talked about that off the top,
12:59
CrossFit.
13:01
Sorry you were in late.
13:04
The other piece of this is
13:07
that Taylor resigned.
13:08
So eventually it didn't come
13:10
down to Dave's decision.
13:11
But the way Dave was talking
13:13
about the week in review,
13:16
just kind of upset me that
13:19
you advertise this as
13:22
something that CrossFit is
13:23
not heavy-handed with.
13:27
It is elected by peers, all of that stuff.
13:32
If he would have been voted
13:33
out by the peers,
13:33
I would have been okay with it.
13:45
My cough drop juice went
13:46
down the wrong pipe.
13:52
I don't know.
13:53
The Craig says was
13:55
resounding was the best decision.
13:57
I'm assuming he means for Taylor.
13:58
I don't know if it was the best decision.
14:00
It was probably the smartest
14:01
decision because it removes
14:03
Taylor from having to worry
14:05
about it and worry about
14:07
all the people accused of
14:08
him being on steroids when
14:10
it's not actually steroids, when it's
14:13
all the shit that he was getting that,
14:15
quite frankly, he didn't deserve,
14:17
in my opinion.
14:20
It's probably the best decision for him,
14:23
not necessarily the best
14:28
decision for the CAC itself,
14:29
because I think he was
14:31
doing good stuff over there
14:34
from the little bit of
14:34
stuff that we got to see
14:36
what he actually did.
14:38
if this was all about the suspension,
14:40
like if that's the road and he suspended,
14:42
he shouldn't be a part of it.
14:44
I was, I'm off.
14:45
Then he's removed.
14:46
Fine.
14:47
Absolutely.
14:48
It's then when you, you,
14:49
you bring someone up on a
14:50
charge and then while
14:52
they're up on the charge, you went, Oh,
14:53
by the way, we don't like this, this,
14:55
and this.
14:56
Yeah.
14:57
It just seems a little bit
15:00
over the top for me.
15:02
Um, I, I,
15:03
So this is not me making a
15:05
statement about should he
15:06
have been or should he not
15:07
have been let go.
15:09
It is that I think that what
15:11
you tried to create,
15:13
you are destroying by the
15:15
way you're talking about it.
15:21
Yeah.
15:22
So.
15:30
Isn't that literally how the
15:31
Diddy trial went poorly?
15:33
Sure.
15:34
I haven't.
15:35
Yeah.
15:35
I could not tell you.
15:36
I could not have given less
15:38
of a shit about Diddy being on trial.
15:41
I dove into it.
15:42
I got sucked in.
15:44
What a mess.
15:51
Is it the athlete council or
15:52
the HQ council?
15:53
That's my point, Denise, exactly.
15:56
It should be the athlete council.
15:58
The decision should have
15:59
been all in the athlete's
16:01
hands or whoever made up
16:02
that group of people.
16:06
I guess he was a coach, not an athlete,
16:08
so it should have been the
16:08
coaches that made the call.
16:13
That's all I'm saying.
16:21
not saying it's right or
16:22
wrong but I was a bit
16:23
shocked to see ca peptides
16:25
ads on the syndicate
16:26
crownstream considering
16:27
that in the end steroids
16:29
are not they are banned
16:30
substances they also sell
16:31
unbanned substances
16:33
I was about to say, yeah,
16:34
they also sell stuff that
16:35
you can actually, you know,
16:36
as a competitive crossfitter,
16:38
actually use.
16:39
And for the people that are
16:40
watching that are casual
16:41
fans that are not actual
16:42
athletes themselves or not professional,
16:46
and I use that term lightly,
16:47
athletes themselves, you know,
16:49
guys like Rich who are
16:50
taking peptides to try to
16:52
repair his knee or the same
16:53
thing Taylor was doing and whatnot.
16:54
Like,
16:54
why wouldn't you want to sell or
16:57
advertise to the people who
16:58
are watching that kind of stuff?
17:00
You know, especially with
17:02
Injury levels in CrossFit being so high.
17:05
Here's some stuff that could
17:06
actually fix it.
17:07
Of course,
17:08
I am being ridiculously
17:10
sarcastic when I say injury
17:11
levels being so high.
17:12
But people who do have chronic knee, elbow,
17:16
tendonitis issues, all that good stuff,
17:18
peptides work.
17:19
Bottom line, they work.
17:22
So why wouldn't you want to
17:23
advertise on there?
17:24
Also, I don't give a damn who advertises.
17:26
If they're paying money for
17:28
the stream to be streamed
17:30
and for it to be live and whatnot,
17:32
I don't give a damn who is advertising.
17:34
Coca-Cola could go ahead on
17:35
and advertise all they want
17:38
for the CrossFit Games.
17:39
I would not care at all.
17:41
Their money folds and it
17:43
spins just like anybody else's.
17:47
CrossFit every sports
17:49
podcast league approved or
17:50
not seems to push Roman
17:52
hers GLP ones also ban
17:55
things yep where CrossFit
18:00
has always had the problem
18:02
is you're associated with
18:03
affiliates as well but if I
18:07
don't want to get into
18:08
because I don't know the
18:08
legal ease behind all the
18:09
peptides and everything I
18:11
just know it's a banned
18:12
substance but yeah
18:17
It is.
18:18
It is what?
18:21
Yeah.
18:22
He's got look right there.
18:23
Like monster to twenty twenty one games.
18:26
If I was drinking water out
18:27
of white monster cans.
18:30
Everybody flips out about that.
18:31
But how many athletes are
18:33
with rain right now,
18:34
which is the exact same thing?
18:37
A lot.
18:38
And you can take rain and
18:40
monster and interchange
18:41
them at any given point
18:42
because the exact same
18:43
chips in both of them.
18:44
Yeah, I don't.
18:48
When I go to my local affiliate,
18:50
you know how many people
18:51
use energy drinks as their pre-workout?
18:56
I got a case of C-IV right there.
18:59
I got another one coming in
19:00
tomorrow before I leave to go to Kansas.
19:03
Yeah, dude.
19:06
I have no less than, I'll say no less than,
19:10
I have at least four to six
19:12
hundred milligrams of
19:13
caffeine a day that comes in canned form,
19:15
depending on what I got going on.
19:22
So anyway, Denise,
19:25
I really enjoyed those cold
19:26
cans of monster water.
19:29
The water in cans is so much
19:31
colder than water in a bottle.
19:33
I don't know why.
19:33
I don't know what the whole
19:35
thing is with it, but damn, it is.
19:42
CrossFat,
19:42
twenty twenty four games didn't
19:44
have water, just Jocko stuff.
19:45
It made my teeth tingle.
19:47
Water was impossible to find.
19:50
The Jocko stuff is weird.
19:52
I've never had any of it, thank God.
19:55
I've seen it a couple places, but... Yeah,
19:58
they were handing it out
19:59
like water at the West
20:00
Semi-Final two years ago in Pasadena.
20:02
Yeah.
20:04
And at the end of the day,
20:06
I grabbed one because I was
20:07
really thirsty.
20:08
And it was weird.
20:11
I don't even know.
20:13
It's like nothing else I've ever had.
20:15
Turns out you weren't that thirsty.
20:20
It's...
20:25
Metal can water better.
20:27
Metal plate squats heavier.
20:29
That is a fact.
20:33
It's science.
20:34

Andrew Stanton.
20:52
Andrew Stanton's been ornery this week,
20:54
man.
20:54
Ornery.
20:57
He is.
20:57
I want to know if he's going.
20:58
He's come and judged me this
20:59
weekend at Monster Games.
21:02
The way he's been this week, man.
21:05
I'm going to worry about it.
21:06
You don't get him.
21:09
He's on a tear.
21:11
Good for him, man.
21:12
Stand up what you believe in.
21:13
I love it.
21:16
So.
21:20
you won't be a monster games
21:21
you're safe man I run into
21:24
him at the games man we're
21:25
going we're going toe to
21:26
toe we're having it out
21:31
getting over we're getting
21:32
over this this bitterness
21:33
we have for each other
21:34
apparently this week it's
21:36
just this week I know every
21:38
other week like we're
21:39
pretty cool this week he's
21:42
tornary man he's coming
21:44
he's coming for somebody's
21:45
skin I love him I absolutely love him
21:48
I actually,
21:50
the last thing I want to say
21:50
about the metal plates, but I actually,
21:52
I will squat with metal
21:53
plates just because I feel
21:55
like it's heavier.
21:56
It's not actually heavier.
21:58
I'm aware of that,
21:59
but I will squat with metal
22:00
plates just because I'm like,
22:02
put those metal ones on
22:03
there and get that extra.
22:11
Uh,
22:13
Standing up and that like metal wobble,
22:16
wobble,
22:17
wobble makes it a hundred pounds
22:18
heavier for the next rep.
22:25
So one of the things that the CAC did,
22:27
because people were asking
22:29
is they were told HQ is
22:31
going to require physical
22:32
exams to compete.
22:34
They backed off of it in a
22:35
subsequent CAC meeting.
22:40
Uh,
22:44
pay a lot of added expense
22:46
to have physicals for all the athletes.
22:52
Unless they're going to make
22:52
the athletes pay for it themselves.
22:56
That'd be a bold move, Cotton.
22:58
I'd like to see how that
22:58
pays off for them.
23:02
It's people's dreams, man.
23:04
Look, I get it.
23:05
I'm one of them, but God, no.
23:10
Cost.
23:11
Just cost alone.
23:12
I mean, how much is a...
23:15
You got all the men, all the women,
23:18
and all the teams.
23:26
Halpin,
23:27
I'm saying HQ backed off after CAC
23:29
members said it was a good idea.
23:35
Anyway.
23:37
Yeah, when I was in high school,
23:38
I had to get a physical for
23:39
every sport three times a year.
23:41
Yeah, I did too.
23:47
And then I watched that Ohio
23:48
State documentary and I'm like, was I?
23:50
No.
23:53
I haven't watched it yet.
23:54
I did watch,
23:55
which I think you would enjoy
23:57
if you get a chance to yet, Facing Nolan.
24:00
I've heard it's good.
24:04
Dude, it's real good.
24:06
His entire story from him
24:09
being a kid all the way up and through,
24:11
you know, seven new hitters.
24:13
from our resident pediatrician.
24:16
No HIPAA,
24:16
just a note from the doctor
24:17
saying okay to compete.
24:18
Just bring a note from your doctor.
24:21
My primary care physician is my PT.
24:23
Does that count?
24:24
I could just get a note from
24:25
Jeremy and be like, hey,
24:27
Jeremy said I'm good to go.
24:29
I mean,
24:30
technically he is a doctor and he
24:31
is a freaking physical therapist.
24:32
So...
24:38
And then back, one last metal plate.
24:40
But why do metal plate
24:41
deadlifts feel better?
24:43
Because you're lifting heavier weight.
24:44
Because it's heavier, yeah,
24:45
a hundred percent.
24:46
You've accomplished more.
24:50
Hard facts.
24:53
The one thing I want to talk
24:54
to you off the top,
24:55
and then you weren't here for this,
24:56
is there was a video
24:58
yesterday that Hiller did on me.
25:03
I don't want to get into the whole video,
25:05
but we did that last night.
25:08
I don't know why I said the word jazzed.
25:11
I don't think I've ever, ever,
25:13
ever said I'm jazzed.
25:17
You one hundred percent said it.
25:19
Yeah, I know.
25:20
It's right there on video.
25:21
Like, so jazzed.
25:24
Who says that?
25:26
The best part about it is
25:27
that everybody else has picked up on it.
25:29
So if you go look like every
25:31
comment is like every comment,
25:32
I'm also jazzed.
25:34
I'm jazzed for you, Scott.
25:38
I'm bringing it back from
25:39
nineteen thirties lingo.
25:42
I love it.
25:43
I absolutely love it.
25:44
I'm so jazzed.
25:46
It's a beautiful thing.
25:48
Everybody's jazzed.
25:51
Scott is one hundred percent
25:51
the kind of guy to say jazzed.
25:53
Apparently.
25:55
Snaps and hands for Scott.
25:57
Bop boobity bop bop.
25:58
And I love that word.
26:07
jazz hands scott's a cool
26:10
mama jama know what I mean
26:13
hey all you cool cats yeah
26:15
that's fantastic dude I
26:18
have shown you guys I do
26:19
not do notes like when I go
26:21
off and I tell my stories
26:22
and I do my monologues it's
26:24
just all straight off the
26:25
top of my head out of my
26:27
heart and sometimes like I
26:30
finish and I don't even
26:31
realize what I've said
26:33
It's very much like old
26:34
school where Will Ferrell
26:36
goes into like the long
26:39
dissertation and then he
26:41
kind of like comes to what just happened.
26:44
I don't understand what just happened.
26:47
That's kind of what happens.
26:48
And then when it's shown to
26:50
you that I'm jazzed.
26:53
You're just sitting there going,
26:54
did I say I was jazzed?
26:55
Did I say that?
26:58
Oh, yeah.
26:58
Yeah.
27:03
Gotta make jazz a regular
27:05
part of your vernacular now.
27:06
You gotta own it, right?
27:08
It's my identity now.
27:10
Absolutely.
27:10
You're gonna show up
27:13
tomorrow with a beret on
27:14
and some little John Lennon sunglasses.
27:18
Cigarette holders.
27:20
That swell.
27:22
That swell doesn't have this connotation.
27:26
You know, the jazz hands.
27:29
Jazz hands.
27:30
Jazzy fingers.
27:34
The spontaneous banter is
27:36
one of the things I love
27:36
about your podcast.
27:40
Scott saying jazz better or
27:41
worse than some athletes
27:42
saying frigging or gosh or golly gee.
27:47
Next thing you'll be saying
27:48
is the bee's knees.
27:51
So for real,
27:52
I used to joke that I wanted
27:54
to bring back a catchphrase
27:56
and I would say everything
27:57
was the cat's pajamas.
27:58
Everything's the cat's pajamas.
28:00
I love it.
28:00
Jazz goes with cat's pajamas.
28:02
I feel like
28:04
Those two things could be in
28:05
the same vernacular, like,
28:07
one hundred percent.
28:09
Damn, you fired me.
28:12
But I've never said jazzed.
28:15
You have.
28:15
You said it yesterday.
28:16
Now I have.
28:17
Now I have.
28:22
Now I have.
28:23
That is fantastic.
28:26
Absolutely fantastic.
28:29
I just threw up in my mouth a bit.
28:32
I mean...
28:36
Heavy metal.
28:39
The cat's pajamas, dude.
28:39
Come on, Stan.
28:41
All right.
28:45
So I just had to get that out.
28:46
I just had to get that out.
28:48
On a scale of one to ten, Scott,
28:50
how jazzed are you for the games?
28:55
I am ten jazz fingers ready for the games.
29:02
All of them.
29:05
He's definitely not a dweeb or a zapper.
29:10
So back to you.
29:14
Now,
29:15
I'm going to cautiously walk into this
29:17
because we've been down this road before.
29:19
You qualified for Legends.
29:24
Yes.
29:25
You are above the cut line.
29:27
Unofficially.
29:29
We have been unofficially
29:31
above the cut line before.
29:34
Well, not for this one.
29:36
Last year, I was... Just weeks ago,
29:40
we were above a cut line
29:42
and something happened.
29:44
And then you were still above the cut line,
29:45
but they changed the rule.
29:49
That point, I still will not get over.
29:52
That right there.
29:56
No, we did not cheat and complain again,
29:58
Grossman.
29:58
Yeah.
30:02
So now,
30:05
did you have someone review your videos,
30:06
make sure they're clean?
30:08
No,
30:09
I went through them before I uploaded
30:10
them.
30:12
You read all the rules six times?
30:14
Dude, I printed the rules.
30:17
You know what I threw them away?
30:19
Yesterday.
30:19
All right.
30:22
I literally threw them away
30:23
yesterday afternoon when I
30:26
got back to the gym.
30:27
They were sitting in my box.
30:28
I brought them with me.
30:30
Yeah, just waiting on video review.
30:31
That's it.
30:34
I don't think he's saying, yeah,
30:35
all we're doing is waiting on video.
30:36
He's saying, wait on video review.
30:40
It is a little menacing sounding.
30:42
Yeah.
30:43
Thanks, Lito.
30:45
Andrew Sten in this week of
30:46
his crankiness is like,
30:49
I have a certain set of skills.
30:52
I mean, he does.
30:53
He does.
30:54
I like that.
30:55
He's looking for it.
30:56
Thanks, Drew.
30:56
I appreciate that.
31:00
yeah like this one's whoops
31:02
this is gonna age like milk
31:04
it's gonna be fantastic
31:06
it's gonna turn into cheese
31:11
uh I printed all of it we
31:14
went over it seventeen
31:15
different times uh before
31:17
we even started any of them
31:19
thanks jeremy holy cracker jacks yes
31:26
yeah margot alvarez gets to
31:28
have holy cracker jacks why
31:29
don't I get jazzed I
31:31
commented on that and I was
31:32
like I'm gonna add holy
31:33
cracker jacks to my uh to
31:35
my vocabulary and she
31:37
commented back and she was
31:38
like I use it way more
31:39
often than I ever should so
31:47
I know that like last year
31:49
you went to legends
31:52
You beat Jason Grubb on one
31:54
event in that major weekend.
31:57
It did.
31:57
What are your goals this year?
31:59
I'm going to be more
32:00
competitive this year.
32:02
So, full disclosure,
32:03
I did all these workouts once.
32:06
Like, one and done.
32:08
Got it done.
32:08
Got it on video.
32:10
Let me qualify that a little bit.
32:14
I practiced a round or so of
32:16
each one before I committed
32:17
it in the video.
32:17
Okay?
32:18
Okay.
32:20
committed them to video,
32:21
did them all at once.
32:22
Like,
32:22
I was still training for Monster
32:24
Games just coming up this weekend.
32:25
Just trying to get my
32:28
regular training done.
32:29
And I did not want them...
32:31
Because you know how Masters athletes are,
32:33
right?
32:34
We had a twenty-day window
32:38
to get them all done.
32:39
And I guarantee you there's
32:41
people that did them four and five times.
32:44
I just know there is.
32:44
I just know how Masters...
32:46
And I didn't want to be that guy.
32:48
So, I went...
32:50
Not this past weekend,
32:51
the weekend before last,
32:52
me and my buddy Gareth got
32:54
together and did three of them,
32:56
two on Saturday, one on Sunday.
32:59
And then I went and did the last one,
33:02
the one I did the best on,
33:04
on the following Tuesday.
33:07
Got them all uploaded, got them all done.
33:10
Was actually playing around
33:11
with doing one of them,
33:13
the roll burpee and snatch one again.
33:18
Actually,
33:19
Gave another shot at it,
33:20
but didn't do as well as I did before,
33:24
so I wasn't that concerned about it.
33:26
But I still had time.
33:28
And then they gave another
33:29
extra day to turn stuff in
33:31
because people were having
33:32
trouble uploading their
33:33
videos or whatnot.
33:34
But you had three weeks.
33:38
Yeah.
33:39
Like it started on July
33:40
first and it ended on July,
33:43
and then they got an email
33:47
late Sunday night that said
33:49
from Joe saying that
33:50
because people having
33:51
trouble uploading scores and videos,
33:53
they won't give them until
33:55
when it'd be in seven
33:56
o'clock yesterday afternoon,
33:58
which I don't care personally.
34:00
Like my stuff was already done.
34:02
It's already in.
34:02
I'm not that worried about it.
34:04
I just think it's kind of
34:05
crazy to think that people
34:06
had three weeks
34:08
A buddy of mine in our email
34:10
group and our email company
34:12
masters group did all of
34:14
them last weekend.
34:16
Literally like either Friday
34:18
and Saturday or Saturday and Sunday,
34:20
he did all four of them and
34:21
just got them all done and uploaded.
34:22
Like it's not that hard to do.
34:25
It's really, really not.
34:26
So the fact that people were
34:27
having that much trouble
34:28
with them is mind blowing to me.
34:31
But when you had that much time, Well,
34:33
I think the key for you is
34:34
that you did all of all of
34:35
the workouts this time,
34:37
instead of half a one.
34:38
Yes.
34:40
So that may help you out a
34:42
little bit more this time.
34:43
Oh, no.
34:45
The one that I had circled
34:48
was the front rack, double dumbbell,
34:52
walking lunge, and bar muscle-up one.
34:55
And I knew I was going to be
34:56
able to do good on that one.
34:58
So I kind of had it circled
34:59
on my calendar as far as I'm concerned.
35:01
I wanted to make sure I optimized it,
35:03
I guess you could say.
35:05
And I was so amped up, hyped up,
35:08
whatever you want to call
35:08
it before I did.
35:09
Like I almost threw up before I started,
35:11
like just knowing what was
35:13
fixing to happen is got to
35:14
the point where it was just like,
35:15
the only way this is going
35:16
to go away is if I just
35:18
start the clock and go.
35:20
And, uh,
35:21
and I'm getting fourth on that one
35:23
altogether,
35:23
which probably helped me out
35:26
just even to get,
35:26
make sure that I was above the cut line,
35:28
but good stuff.
35:32
Yeah.
35:32
Um,
35:32
CrossFit says I'd watch Margo say
35:34
anything.
35:36
I got to tell you, man,
35:38
I met Margo at the Arnold
35:41
and here in Columbus,
35:42
the Arnold is five billion
35:45
people all in one.
35:46
It's going to be where the
35:47
Masters CrossFit Games is.
35:49
And I met her there,
35:52
came back the following year.
35:55
She remembered not only my name,
35:56
but my wife's name.
36:00
And we had met a year prior
36:02
at a major event.
36:06
This was prior to me being a
36:07
part of media.
36:08
This was just being a volunteer at places.
36:11
And to this day,
36:12
she still remembers my name.
36:14
It absolutely blows my mind.
36:17
I have never heard anyone have a bad,
36:21
you know what I mean?
36:23
Like encounter with her,
36:25
experience with her.
36:25
I've never heard anybody go say, you know,
36:28
and I've met several people at this point,
36:31
but I've never heard
36:31
anybody had an interaction
36:33
with Margo and they said,
36:35
know when it came away going
36:36
she was kind of a you know
36:38
whatever it was always she
36:40
was so nice she was so
36:41
gracious she was so all of
36:43
the all the things all the
36:44
positive things yeah she
36:47
came on to our show early
36:49
on probably like three
36:50
times uh sent me bottles of
36:54
wine to try uh she's just
36:57
like she is um she gets me jazzed
37:07
It's fantastic.
37:09
That's absolutely fantastic.
37:11
Yeah, she's great.
37:13
I say she's great.
37:14
I assume she's great.
37:15
Never heard anything bad about it.
37:18
I'm going to be one and done, Corey,
37:20
unless I really effed up a workout.
37:22
I don't redo ever.
37:25
That's it.
37:25
If I know...
37:28
And I went back and looked at him.
37:29
I'm like, okay,
37:30
I couldn't have gone any faster here.
37:31
I couldn't have gone.
37:32
The only one I was going to redo,
37:34
because I thought I could snatch,
37:35
do the snatch complex more,
37:37
was the first one.
37:39
And I was just like, eh.
37:44
I got a decent score.
37:45
I got a decent snatch in there.
37:47
Whatever.
37:49
And I go back and look at
37:50
everybody's scores now.
37:51
I'm like, yeah,
37:52
I probably could have done that one.
37:54
Save myself a couple of,
37:56
bump myself up a couple of spots,
37:57
but it ain't that big a deal.
38:00
Margo's a dime.
38:02
Love Margo.
38:03
She's the cat's pajamas.
38:06
She's fantastic.
38:10
And Denise Margo is an
38:12
amazing human being.
38:13
Yeah.
38:14
There's nobody that I've
38:15
ever heard say a bad word about Margo.
38:19
I mean, when you're attractive, super fit,
38:23
intelligent, and you make your own wine.
38:28
Yeah.
38:30
I mean,
38:30
she's a home run all the way around.
38:34
CrossFit says,
38:34
how many videos do Masters
38:37
athletes mess up filming?
38:39
And Andrew goes, quickly,
38:41
it's not just Masters
38:42
athletes who screw up videos.
38:47
Yeah.
38:49
Crazy.
38:50
I've had a couple of them
38:51
where I went to go film and
38:52
stuff and I got everything
38:53
else done specifically with dumbbells.
38:57
And like, here's my tape line.
38:58
Here's my mark.
38:59
Here's my mark.
39:00
Here's a whatever, you know, Corey,
39:02
forty five, forty nine, blah, blah,
39:03
whatever.
39:04
I go set up my camera and
39:05
I'm going to go start it.
39:07
And I stop and I go and grab
39:09
this thing one more time.
39:10
Hey, these are my fifty pound dumbbells.
39:12
See what it says?
39:12
Fifty right there.
39:13
Fifty right there.
39:13
Because it's an easy thing to overlook.
39:17
didn't put a label on them
39:18
and say they were your
39:18
fifty pound dumbbells I
39:20
should have should have put
39:21
a freaking uh do not touch
39:26
yeah cory's fifty pound
39:28
dumbbell do not touch the
39:31
level of arrogance that
39:34
that that accompanies that
39:37
is beyond my level of
39:38
comprehension yeah i
39:43
Let me tell you something.
39:44
One of my best friends has,
39:46
actually a couple different
39:47
people I know have barbell,
39:48
their own barbell.
39:49
They brought their own barbell to the gym,
39:51
right?
39:52
But at no point did Bernard ever write,
39:57
Bernard's barbell, do not touch.
40:01
Aiden never wrote Aiden's barbell.
40:04
Do not touch.
40:05
Roy doesn't have Roy's barbell.
40:08
As a matter of fact,
40:09
whenever I went and did
40:10
semifinals over at Roy's
40:12
place in Mandeville, he was like, hey,
40:14
do you want to use my barbell?
40:16
And I was like, yes, thank you.
40:18
Because it's a good barbell.
40:19
I just don't understand that.
40:25
I film for my coach every day,
40:26
and at least one time a week,
40:28
I crop off my head, half my body.
40:31
So there's that.
40:33
Over-fifty don't judge me.
40:37
I understand, Vinny.
40:39
Every time,
40:41
I usually just put it with the
40:42
camera facing me.
40:44
Right.
40:45
So I make sure it's good and set up.
40:46
I can see what I want to see.
40:47
Cause I don't like looking back at myself.
40:50
So I'll set it up and then
40:51
start and then go walk around.
40:53
And like,
40:53
I got my face right here in the camera.
40:55
And I'm like, Corey, that's just four,
40:57
five, four, you know, it's just work out.
41:00
Whatever it is.
41:01
Like looking through the drain hole.
41:03
Yeah.
41:04
Like I'm knocking on
41:05
somebody's door and I'm
41:07
trying to look at somebody
41:08
looking at people.
41:09
Yeah.
41:13
we have a rack for those
41:14
folks at my affiliate,
41:15
but a barbell isn't a runner.
41:18
It is not.
41:21
One hole in the rack.
41:22
Yeah.
41:24
It's not a roller or a skier.
41:28
We have one skier at our gym.
41:31
One.
41:31
And I cannot fathom.
41:32
And look,
41:33
I'm one of the only people that
41:34
uses it on a regular basis.
41:37
So I can't imagine just like
41:39
taking one of my sticky notes over here
41:41
And just going right,
41:43
this is Corey's skier and
41:46
put that on there.
41:47
Like as if that would make a
41:48
difference to anybody.
41:49
Let me tell you something.
41:49
Me personally,
41:52
if I'm at the gym and somebody's got,
41:54
this is whoever's like,
41:56
the first thing I'm going
41:57
to do is use that one.
41:58
That's the first thing I'm going to do.
42:00
It's a, it's a machine.
42:02
You can't hurt it unless you
42:05
intentionally hurt it.
42:08
Oh, that's annoying.
42:16
Oh, come on, Lito.
42:21
I never, ever speak to the camera.
42:23
I just write everything on a whiteboard,
42:24
too self-conscious.
42:28
As you can tell, we do this.
42:29
We don't really care.
42:30
No, not at all.
42:35
So the last thing I wanted to talk about,
42:38
and it kind of stems from
42:38
the Hiller video.
42:40
Cause again,
42:41
you watch back and then I
42:42
remember what I said,
42:43
cause I didn't remember at
42:44
the time what I said and
42:46
we're past jazzed,
42:47
but I think people forget
42:52
why you're given a media pass.
42:56
Oh, absolutely.
42:58
Right.
42:59
And that is that, um,
43:03
That is that the event is
43:09
inviting you in so that you
43:12
do media from that event to
43:14
get eyes on that event and
43:17
the participants at the event.
43:20
You're not given the media
43:22
pass for you to go hang out
43:24
with your friends and take selfies.
43:27
You are not the story.
43:30
You were there to show the event.
43:34
and promote.
43:35
So when I said that, like I said,
43:38
the hell with this,
43:38
I'm going to park myself
43:39
outside the tunnel and take
43:41
video and do interviews of
43:43
everybody coming off the floor,
43:45
heat after heat after heat,
43:46
and try to get up on IG as
43:47
quickly as possible.
43:49
I know that Wilson wants
43:50
promoted with his event promoted.
43:52
So you throw up an interview
43:54
with an athlete coming off
43:55
the floor and then you tag the
43:57
Syndicate Crown or Mac in it,
43:59
they start sharing it too.
44:01
And then you are mutually
44:03
benefiting each other
44:06
because you're getting content up there.
44:08
They're getting content up
44:09
there without having to do it themselves.
44:12
And it promotes the event.
44:16
That is the piece that some
44:19
of the people in this vein
44:23
have forgotten about.
44:26
Or actively ignored.
44:28
Yeah.
44:31
Because you can't have
44:32
forgotten about it unless
44:34
you're unless I feel like
44:36
it's a willful ignorance
44:37
thing at this point.
44:39
Like, oh,
44:40
I got enhanced media access so I
44:42
can be there.
44:43
Yeah,
44:43
you can be there to go do what they
44:47
want you to do.
44:48
The only reason they ask you
44:49
to come there is because
44:50
you have a platform and you
44:51
can reach people and you
44:53
can cover their event.
44:56
Not so that you can cover
44:57
you at their event.
44:59
Nobody's following you
45:00
around at their event.
45:02
You were supposed to be
45:02
talking about the event, the athletes,
45:05
God forbid, the equipment, whatever.
45:07
You know what I mean?
45:09
All of those things.
45:11
Not because I'm here.
45:15
Good.
45:15
Good for you.
45:16
Good for you.
45:17
Yeah, we know you're there.
45:18
We don't care that you're there.
45:19
We care that the people are there,
45:21
that the event's happening.
45:24
Um, Anderson,
45:25
what does enhanced access give you?
45:27
Well,
45:27
and this is more than just an
45:29
enhanced access.
45:30
Even if you are just given a media pass,
45:32
it gets you free admission
45:33
into the venue.
45:35
You gives you the right to
45:37
bring a camera in and take
45:39
photos and videos and all
45:40
of that kind of stuff.
45:42
But you're being brought
45:43
there to help promote the
45:45
event in return for you
45:47
getting free pass into the venue.
45:50
That is what you are to then
45:52
give back to the event.
45:55
As a partnership.
45:58
As a partnership.
45:58
Not a competition.
46:00
You're not competing against people.
46:02
It's a partnership to help
46:04
promote the event.
46:05
Now,
46:05
what Enhanced gives you at the
46:07
CrossFit Games is it allows
46:09
you back in the warm-up
46:10
area with the athletes and
46:12
the volunteers to get
46:13
additional coverage that
46:15
you would not be able to
46:16
get with a regular pass.
46:19
And that's what we'll be able to do.
46:22
But the media contract is
46:24
much more stringent and
46:27
much more on the lines of
46:28
being respectful of
46:29
athletes that are there to
46:30
compete and to not mess up
46:32
that aspect of everything.
46:37
But that's why you're given a media pass,
46:39
period,
46:40
in any sport or event or
46:42
entertainment piece.
46:44
Yeah.
46:45
Like you said,
46:46
you're not there to hang out.
46:51
right get in the way make a
46:54
nuisance of yourself you
46:56
dare to literally cover the
46:57
event and give them
46:58
something it's a something
47:01
that you can use and
47:02
something that they can use
47:04
right I hate to use that
47:07
word because it sounds
47:08
funky but it's a symbiotic
47:09
partnership right you're
47:12
getting something you get
47:13
access you get to put out
47:14
stories do interviews blah
47:16
blah whatever it goes on
47:16
your channel to promote
47:17
your stuff and it's also
47:18
promoting their stuff
47:20
And the fact that they trust
47:21
you enough to promote their
47:23
stuff and do it correctly.
47:26
And in a good, uh,
47:30
what's the word I'm looking for?
47:32
Not educational, but, um, respectful,
47:36
I guess you could say entertaining way.
47:41
That's also going to, you know,
47:43
show the athlete, show the event,
47:44
show all that stuff in a good light,
47:46
in a real light.
47:48
And you don't take.
47:49
You don't take advantage of that.
47:53
Just to use it to promote
47:54
yourself at that point.
47:56
What's good for me?
47:58
What's good for you is the
47:59
fact that you got there and
48:02
you're going to get yours.
48:03
You know what I've never seen you do?
48:06
This.
48:07
Go start an interview like this.
48:09
Hi,
48:09
this is Scott and here is Colton Mertens.
48:14
My goal is to never appear on camera.
48:17
Exactly.
48:17
Because it's not about you.
48:19
It's about the athletes.
48:20
Right.
48:22
And everybody has their own style,
48:23
and it is what it is.
48:24
But you have to remember
48:26
just the main fact.
48:27
You are there to help the event.
48:28
That's why you're given a free pass.
48:30
That's why you're given
48:31
access to different areas.
48:32
That's why you're given
48:33
access to a workroom.
48:35
Things like that, right?
48:37
Off of the floor and out of
48:38
the stands to go in and do things, edit,
48:42
cut,
48:43
do all that kind of stuff to get
48:44
things up quickly.
48:46
And usually,
48:47
high-speed internet to help you do that.
48:51
Any speed internet would be great.
48:53
A big one from the Bayou, Symbiotic.
48:58
We're not as backwards as
48:59
people think we are.
49:02
I wanted to show this.
49:04
Vicky,
49:04
become a member and get early access
49:05
to the vignettes during the games.
49:07
Yes,
49:07
the two things we are really focusing
49:09
on at the games this year
49:10
are we have a deal with
49:11
Hattie Cano to be embedded
49:13
with her in her camp for
49:15
the entire CrossFit Games
49:16
before and after.
49:19
And that means we'll be at the dinners.
49:20
We'll be at lunches.
49:22
We'll be at the hotel room talking.
49:24
We will be in the car going to the venue,
49:28
going in the car from the venue.
49:31
We're going to capture all of that stuff.
49:33
Now that we have enhanced access,
49:35
we can also then add in the
49:36
flavor of her and her coach
49:38
talking back in the warm-up areas,
49:40
things like that,
49:41
getting ready for the event.
49:42
You're going to have a lot
49:43
of Tristan on camera.
49:45
Probably.
49:46
Yes.
49:50
With that,
49:51
Hattie is only one part of the day,
49:52
right?
49:53
So in the other time that
49:54
she's not there doing those
49:56
things and she needs to
49:57
rest and go do what she needs to do,
50:00
we're going to go do
50:01
vignettes with other athletes.
50:03
Short little talks, conversations,
50:06
and those will be released.
50:08
The vignettes I'm going to
50:08
try to get out during the weekend.
50:11
If you're a member,
50:13
you will get it immediately
50:14
as it goes up.
50:15
If you are not a member,
50:16
you'll get it twenty four hours after.
50:19
you hear that folks like
50:20
subscribe and make sure
50:21
your notifications are set to all and on
50:28
I'm looking at doing,
50:30
and I'm so pumped to do that.
50:33
I'm really excited for this Hattie thing.
50:35
It's something new that
50:36
we're doing that we've never done before.
50:38
I kind of did it with Jamie
50:39
in my first documentary
50:41
where I was embedded with
50:42
her for a whole quarterfinals weekend.
50:44
And that's how we got close
50:45
and became good friends and
50:47
how Jamie became a member
50:48
of this channel.
50:50
So Hattie's already been a
50:51
member of this channel and
50:53
we're just extending our
50:55
friendship a little bit more.
50:57
Pull up Judy's comment.
51:00
I'm so far behind on comments.
51:04
Scott does not eat all day at events.
51:06
He's working too hard.
51:08
So if you see him,
51:08
buy him a snack and make him eat.
51:12
That is a solid, hard fact.
51:16
I can confirm that from
51:18
being at an event with Scott.
51:20
He gets embedded,
51:21
he gets to do what he's doing,
51:22
and he forgets to eat, which...
51:25
I don't know how anybody forgets to eat,
51:27
but the man needs to eat.
51:28
So yes,
51:29
if you see him and you see him
51:30
running around in the games,
51:32
buy him a protein bar and
51:34
sit there until he eats it
51:35
at the very least.
51:37
If not, get him something,
51:38
a plate of something from
51:40
somebody for the love of God,
51:41
because the man will go all
51:42
day without eating.
51:43
Yeah.
51:45
Corey used to text me if he
51:46
knew I was in an event.
51:47
Hey, have you eaten today?
51:50
Judy has literally bought me
51:52
like a Caesar salad and
51:54
plopped it in front of my
51:55
face and sat there until I ate it.
52:02
Judy's the best.
52:03
And I do, I do, I do.
52:07
I am going to be at a hotel
52:08
with a kitchen.
52:09
So I am going to take stuff
52:11
with me to the venue each
52:13
day to be able to, to do that.
52:15
That's good.
52:15
Eat it.
52:16
Don't just take it with you.
52:18
Yeah,
52:18
that's step two that I have the hard
52:20
time with.
52:22
Kat used to do that too.
52:23
She'd just show up in the
52:23
media room with like a rice
52:25
bowl and do those kind of things.
52:29
So, yeah.
52:34
For real, Denise, I'm not kidding.
52:35
I've seen it happen.
52:40
Tons of snacks.
52:41
Jose, who's actually Hattie's photographer,
52:44
videographer.
52:46
He's got snacks in his bag.
52:48
We're going to be working
52:49
with him during the weekend
52:50
to make sure we can get
52:51
every bit of coverage we can of Hattie.
52:57
Judy just wanted an excuse
52:58
to chat with me.
53:01
I hope I delivered on a good chat.
53:05
That was a fun weekend, dude.
53:07
We're at first time here live.
53:08
What time do you usually go live?
53:09
We go twelve fifteen eastern time.
53:12
It's usually forty five minutes.
53:13
But whenever Corey's on,
53:14
we talk too long and I risk
53:17
getting in trouble at work
53:20
because it's this is just my lunch hour.
53:21
That's why it's lunch with the Clydesdale.
53:23
I stop working.
53:24
I come down here.
53:25
I fire it up.
53:26
We go from twelve fifteen to
53:27
one o'clock generally
53:29
eastern time and just chat
53:32
about all things sports
53:33
entertainment and specifically CrossFit.
53:37
Keeping it real, what day?
53:38
I'm currently scheduled to
53:40
get there Wednesday.
53:41
I'm debating trying to get
53:43
there Tuesday if I can swing it.
53:48
I'd love to be at
53:49
registration with Hattie.
53:51
I didn't know they were
53:52
doing that so early.
53:53
Why they're doing it four
53:54
days before the event starts,
53:56
that makes no sense to me.
54:00
But I might try to get there on Tuesday.
54:03
Depends on how early her
54:04
registration time is.
54:11
Where's the dating show gone?
54:13
I think someone found love.
54:15
Yeah, I think that's good.
54:21
And I've been trying to talk
54:22
her into... She could still
54:23
do a talk show about all
54:25
that stuff without actually
54:26
taking part in it and
54:29
having conversations.
54:36
Um...
54:40
keeping it real.
54:41
I wanted to get there for warmup.
54:42
It costs an extra thousand dollars.
54:45
I'm not flying.
54:45
I'm driving.
54:48
Um,
54:49
so it's just driving early and one more
54:51
day in the hotel for me.
54:55
He meant registration.
54:57
Uh,
54:58
I just don't know what I would do for
54:59
two more days.
55:01
I mean, we could,
55:02
I could go to the gym with Hattie.
55:03
I could do in the thriving metropolis.
55:07
That is Albany, New York.
55:08
Yeah.
55:12
Yeah, there's been speculation.
55:13
Would there be like an event
55:14
one on Thursday?
55:16
I think you could do an event zero.
55:23
It wouldn't be out of
55:27
character for Dave to do
55:28
something like that,
55:30
like to throw something else at somebody.
55:33
And that would be a clue, right?
55:35
Oh, no,
55:35
you need to be here Tuesday to register.
55:40
Oh, do we now?
55:42
you know,
55:42
make sure everybody's registering and,
55:43
and all that good stuff because,
55:45
because why?
55:45
Well, because we said so that's why, like,
55:48
and just being coy about it
55:49
and not even saying anything.
55:51
And then all of a sudden the
55:52
night before at the,
55:54
like have an athlete dinner
55:55
Wednesday night.
55:56
Oh, by the way, tomorrow we're doing this.
56:00
I could go to the affiliate
56:01
coach summit and talk to
56:02
affiliate donors.
56:04
That's something I could do.
56:08
Not a terrible idea.
56:08
Um,
56:11
Yeah.
56:12
Well, that's our show today.
56:13
We are almost at an hour.
56:20
Did you talk to him about
56:21
mentioning... Did you...
56:24
Mentioning twists yet?
56:26
I don't know what I got out of that.
56:29
He said like the weirdest
56:30
apparatus would probably be the axle bar.
56:32
That's not much of a weird apparatus.
56:36
No.
56:38
And the pegboard...
56:41
I don't know.
56:43
I mean, it's tall.
56:45
It's a tall pig boy.
56:49
I don't know.
56:50
I didn't get a lot out of that.
56:53
I'm about to go watch it this afternoon.
56:54
I didn't get a chance to see it.
56:58
Yeah, it was weird.
57:06
I bet it's either double
57:07
scores or a weight vest.
57:11
He did say even the ones
57:12
that are announced could
57:12
have additional twists.
57:18
But you know how Dave talks.
57:19
Either it could have twists
57:21
or even the ones that
57:23
aren't announced could have twists.
57:24
And even the one I did last
57:26
year at the games could have had a twist.
57:29
A man is really,
57:30
really good at being vague.
57:33
And non-committal.
57:35
Exactly.
57:38
So...
57:43
Dave seems to be back on OG CrossFit.
57:45
That being the point,
57:46
he is making no weird stuff.
57:49
I just hope it's good races.
57:51
I just want to see good races.
57:57
I think they will be.
57:58
Just from the stuff that's already put out,
58:00
I think you're going to get
58:02
some good races.
58:06
He said the pegboard workout
58:08
could be one of the hardest
58:09
ever at the CrossFit Games
58:11
and that it might stop some
58:12
people in their tracksuit.
58:16
He's going to make them wear tracksuits.
58:19
It's going to look like Run
58:20
DMC from the from the eighties.
58:24
My Adidas walked through
58:25
plastic doors and they
58:26
stole all over Coliseum floors.
58:28
That's right.
58:31
I was I was going to do.
58:32
Oh, yeah.
58:36
Look, I agree with CrossFab right there.
58:39
I will be so jazzed if we
58:42
don't see it coming.
58:46
I am stuck with jazz forever.
58:48
It's going to be at least
58:49
the next week or so.
58:50
I can promise you that.
58:55
If one of your first
58:56
interviews or whatever with
58:57
Hattie and she just doesn't turn around,
58:58
you're going to go,
58:59
I am so jazzed to be here.
59:02
I'm going to be upset.
59:09
Sabrina Seymour.
59:11
Anyone else catch when he
59:12
said the run after the first row?
59:14
I mean the run after the row
59:15
in the interview with Ty.
59:16
I didn't even see the interview with Ty.
59:23
I think the quote he
59:24
actually said we can review was,
59:26
I'm going to jazz these wads up a bit.
59:31
Don't think that I won't
59:32
jazz these wads up.
59:36
Uh, Shannon,
59:37
we need a jazz t-shirt with Scott on it.
59:42
Uh, wow.
59:44
And we'll see Travis in two days.
59:45
I can get,
59:46
I bet you I can get him to make you one.
59:52
Oh, you seen or no dude.
59:55
Um, the lost boys.
59:58
Yep.
59:59
With the dude playing a saxophone.
1:00:01
Yep.
1:00:02
Only is Scott playing the saxophone.
1:00:04
He just says jazzed.
1:00:08
I got one in my daughter's bedroom.
1:00:10
She played saxophone all
1:00:12
through high school, man.
1:00:16
That is fantastic.
1:00:19
They're going to throw on a
1:00:20
ruck for the last run of event one.
1:00:23
I've heard that since they
1:00:25
announced the run, row, run,
1:00:28
that part of that was going to be a ruck.
1:00:33
Run, row, ruck.
1:00:34
Sounds like something
1:00:37
Scooby-Doo would say.
1:00:43
We need some Clydesdale apparel.
1:00:45
We do.
1:00:47
We do.
1:00:49
I got to figure it out.
1:00:56
Sponsored by the Ruck Race League.
1:00:59
You know,
1:00:59
they're running championships at
1:01:00
the games.
1:01:01
I was going to say they're
1:01:02
doing that at the games, right?
1:01:04
Yeah.
1:01:05
It's a partnership.
1:01:07
So you could see them doing
1:01:08
something like that to
1:01:09
promote their event.
1:01:19
Kenny G is doing the
1:01:21
national anthem this year.
1:01:22
Just for me.
1:01:24
Just for Scott.
1:01:25
Just for Scott.
1:01:26
I love it.
1:01:28
Absolutely love it.
1:01:33
And in Cajun, it's a run, go run.
1:01:37
That's the Rougarou.
1:01:43
The Rougarou.
1:01:44
Jeffrey knows.
1:01:44
He's been down here.
1:01:45
No.
1:01:46
But the Rougarou.
1:01:47
There actually is a Rougarou, bro.
1:01:48
I think it's in Lafayette.
1:01:51
All right, guys.
1:01:52
I've got to get back to work.
1:01:54
With that, it's been a fun day.
1:01:57
I hope you all have a jazzed afternoon.
1:02:00
And with that,
1:02:01
I'll see everybody next time
1:02:04
on Lunch with Clydesdale.
1:02:05
Bye, guys.
